“You went on with your dying.
Nothing could stop you. Not your son. Not your daughter
Who fed you and made you into a child again.”

“At it in its familiar twang: “My friend,
Cut your own throat. Cut your own throat. Now! Now!”

Cracks with the unpicked apples, and at dawn
The small-mouth bass breaks water, gorged with spawn.”
